This is one of my creations for a Paper Piecing Swap. I actually cased the clothesline idea from another blogger. Here is her wonderful card. Mine does not do hers justice!! And be warned, her blog is filled with loads of gorgeous creations. You may not want to leave it once you get there. ;-)

I used a couple of mini clothespins and two mini kraft sticks. I used my Crop-A-Dile to punch holes in the wood and then tied on some hemp twine. I used my new favorite Fence Stamp and lots of dimensionals. I have tons more cards to make so stay tuned!!

I made this card for my friend Cheryl's Riley & Sophie swap. It was my first time trying to sponge a sky. I drew a cloud, cut it out then used it as a mask. I had fun cutting out Sophie and popping her up. The waves happened as an accident but I ended up liking the look.

I have other projects to show but not much time to post recently. I hope to get back into my stamping groove soon!!!

Welcome to my little ole blog!

Hello and Welcome! I love to create with paper crafts. Scrapbooking is my first love, but I'm quickly adding stamping, sewing, furniture refinishing and jewelry making to my list of hobbies. Getting to play in my craft room is my therapy after taking care of my VERY energetic kids. Thanks for stopping by! I'd love to hear from you!
